Hanuman caste row: After Muslim jibe, now this BJP minister claims, 'Lord Hanuman was a Jaat,' see video!

The debate over Lord Hanuman’s caste is not laying to rest as yesterday after an BJP MLC claimed Hanuman was “Muslim,” today a minister in UP government has said Lord Hanuman was a “Jaat.”

The Uttar Pradesh Minister Chaudhary Lakshmi Narayan has claimed that Lord Hanuman was a “Jaat” and another BJP leader has courted controversy over it. Its the UP ministers and leaders of the BJP who are deciding upon the caste and religion of Lord Hanuman.

UP minister Lakshmi Narayan has said, “I think Hanuman ji was a Jaat, because upon seeing someone being troubled a Jaat also jumps in even without knowing the issue or the people.”

The politics over Lord Hanuman’s caste has been playing out since Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath labeled Lord Hanuman as “Dalit” and thereafter it became a trend to name and shame the caste of Hindu religion’s God, and in the spree it’s the BJP leaders who are deciding upon the name and caste of Lord Hanuman.
